Jose Paz-Gutierrez: / 
Anthony Zinno: / 
There hasn't been much in terms of significant action thus far in three-handed play. Instead, the triumvirate have taken turns winning small pots.
For example, in a recent hand Zinno had the bring-in with the and then called when Jose Paz-Gutierrez completed showing an ace. The latter came out with a bet on fourth and Zinno simply folded.
Not much of a hand but indicative of the action as of late.
